Motion platform acceleration calculation & test info

Hi all,

I did some calculations and verification tests on my new motion platform on motor torque, force, speed and accelerations. Not sure whether everything is correct, but I got some results anyhow that seem not too far off. Could be helpful for motor selection, platform load distribution and gearing. You can read about it at http://www.simprojects.nl/platform_d...lculations.htm

Calculations

Hi Roland ... Brilliant ... It took a bit of getting my head around it all.. I'm a "throw it together" sort of builder but what you presented makes real good sence.
All my stuffs in a million bits at the moment but when I get the drive units together, I'll try your formulars etc on my gear.

You have put forward a real good benchmark and the system to check it... Well done.
With all the updates on your great website ... how do you find time to build your sim !!!!
